SG-1000 FPGA Core Released for Mister

Less than three months ago we first heard the news; Analog's next console, the Mega SG, would support SG-1000 games by means of an adapter. While that system wont be with us until at least April, with the adapter coming later in the year, an SG-1000 FPGA core for a different device has just been released.

The MiSTer project running on the D10 Nano FPGA board. 
MiSTER is an open source project that runs on the D10 Nano FPGA board. A group of highly skilled programmers have been working away porting old FPGA cores from the previous project MiST and creating all new cores exclusive to the new format for over a year now, with the total number currently standing at over one hundred. The vast majority of these are arcade, but there's also a healthy number of home computer and console cores now available. One of the more mature console cores is that of the Colecovision.
